Adequate guide support is crucial for percutaneous coronary interventions complicated by unfavorable coronary artery anatomy, pronounced calcification, or the presence of chronic total occlusion. A clinical case presents a novel technique for guide support during stenting chronic coronary occlusion via transradial approach originally proposed in the TransRadial Ultra Support Technique trial.
